Ronald Koeman discussion

[LAToffee]

Hes doing fine.

Hes shed the squad of the dross and hes starting to get good players in, we are hard to beat, picking up wins on the regs, sure the cup exits were a major negative, but ok, this is football. This season was all about getting back to "best of the rest" standing and hopefully getting Europa, Europa is key to everything we want to do, Europa will open up a different bracket of players, not the tier 1s, but the tier 2s we struggled to attract last Summer.

Massive summer coming up for the club, we simply must retain our better players, well, we simply must retain only 1 player, the big man upfront, if we do that, we can kick on, if we cant, well, we are screwed.

Today's news must have been a bit of a kick in the nuts.

My Greek lads have definitely felt that way...

May the manager and the board sort out the contracts of those who are good enough to stay with the club and their contracts would expire on or before summer 2019? Barkley's contract situation is worrying.

How good is it to be an Evertonian these days? Looking at our board, our management, our players & our vision. Sure, there'll be ups and downs along the way with players / managers coming and going or a design flaw / delay with the new stadium that people are going to jump on and say "Typical Everton"... But i'm proud to be blue

COYB!

Koeman will be absolutely furious in his presser tomorrow

Koeman will be absolutely furious in his presser tomorrow

How so? He'll be annoyed at the questions that will be coming his way from the media, enjoying / creating chaos.

Koeman will be absolutely furious in his presser tomorrow

Probably say nothing and denying any silly questions?

 

[rochdaleblue]

Probably say he's knows nothing about the contract situation, it's the board who are dealing with it.

Koeman will be absolutely furious in his presser tomorrow

Will we notice the difference?

 

[blueblue]

I think he will say that negotiations are ongoing and he hopes Lukaku will sign an extension.

 

[Bally8]

Ronald has an excellent opportunity for some manoeuvring tomorrow, he can play this perfectly.

Today's news must have been a bit of a kick in the nuts.

i want to see Koeman coming out fighting in his pre match presser tomorrow, lashing out at everyone like a drunk kicked out of a club for touching up a barmaid in some Widnes nightclub

 

[Khalekan]

I think he will say that negotiations are ongoing and he hopes Lukaku will sign an extension.

You betcha.

 

[Khalekan]

BTW.

If what Lukaku says is true about the board and signings, I would imagine Koeman is thinking along the same lines.

I have a feeling Ronald might walk in the summer.
